SANDY — (KUTV Dec. 9 2015) Crossroads Fitness in Sandy was open for business Wednesday. 24 hours earlier, it was not.

Get Gephardt heard from several people saying that when they showed up to work out Tuesday, the door was locked. A sign on the door read the gym was “closed indefinitely” due to employees not being paid.

The sign was put up by Isiah Alexander Cummings, the gym’s general manager, on behalf of all the gym’s workers.

“We, as the employees, decided that we couldn’t keep being pushed around,” he said.

Alexander Cummings says that, week after week, for several months, his and his staff’s paychecks have been coming late or not at all. Then Tuesday, the last straw when he got a text message from one of the company’s co-owners.

“He basically told us that there would be no payroll and that the employees wouldn’t be paid,” Alexander Cummings said.

The gym was reopened after the sudden closure prompted the co-owner to rush to the gym and pay some of the employees. The payments came in the form of cash, not the usual way: a paycheck.
